The CoSi that reacts and form due to Co and Si
2when contact layer is thicker, still have high-temperature stability, if the material that therefore described the first metal layer 250 is selected is Co, the thickness by the formed the first metal layer 250 of Co can be less than 7nm.

It should be noted that, when removing whole side wall 240, dummy grid 220 is preferably the material except metal, is beneficial to separated the first metal and the dummy grid that forms the first metal silicide layer 111, keeps as much as possible grid size.
With reference to figure 1 and Fig. 5, in step S103, on described substrate 100, deposit interlayer dielectric layer 300.Described interlayer dielectric layer 300 can pass through the methods such as chemical gaseous phase deposition (CVD), high-density plasma CVD, spin coating and/or other suitable technique and form.The material of described interlayer dielectric layer 300 can comprise silica (USG), the silica (as fluorine silex glass, Pyrex, phosphorosilicate glass, boron-phosphorosilicate glass) of doping, a kind of or its combination in low K dielectrics material (as black diamond, coral etc.).The thickness range of described interlayer dielectric layer 300 can be 40nm-150nm, as 80nm, 100nm or 120nm, and can have sandwich construction (between adjacent two layers, material can be different).

Finally, carry out cmp planarizationization and process, make the upper surface flush of described metal gates 280 and interlayer dielectric layer 300, form grid stacked structure, with reference to Figure 10.
With reference to figure 1 and Figure 12, in step S105, on described source/drain region 110, form contact hole 310.In the present embodiment, etching interlayer dielectric layer 300 is until source of exposure/drain region 110 forms contact hole 310, and wherein, the first metal silicide layer 111 can be used as etching barrier layer, controls the etching depth of contact hole 310.
First on interlayer dielectric layer 300 and metal gates 280, covers one deck photoresist layer before etching, to the described photoresist layer composition that exposes, form aperture, correspondence will form the position of contact hole 310.In the present embodiment, use photoetching process interlayer dielectric layer 300 is carried out to etching and stop on the first metal silicide layer 111 as etching barrier layer, to form contact hole 310.Material or polyethylene laurate material that the material of photoresist layer can be vinyl monomer material, contain nitrine quinones, can certainly need to select suitable material according to concrete manufacture.In other embodiments, can use other etching mode, for example, dry etching or wet etching, form contact hole 310.The contact hole 310 forming after etching can have up big and down small pyramidal structure.
In other embodiments, no matter be for the source/drain region of non-lifting or the source/drain region of lifting, when etching stopping is during in the first metal silicide layer 111 as etching barrier layer, can change other etching solutions etching is proceeded in source/drain region, until the bottom of contact hole 310 enters the inside in described source/drain region, thereby further increased the contact area between source/drain region and the second metal silicide layer, reduced the contact resistance between source/drain region and metal silicide layer.

In other embodiments, for etching interlayer dielectric layer 300 and source/drain region 110, the contact hole 310 of 110 inside, arrival source/drain region that form to expose 110Zhong subregion, described source/drain region, formed the second metal silicide layer of post-depositional the second metal level, covers the bottom of described contact hole 310 and by the partial sidewall of the formed contact hole 310 of described source/drain region 110 expose portion.Wherein, the composition of described the second metal level is identical with thickness and previous embodiment, does not repeat them here.
With reference to figure 1 and Figure 14, last, execution step S107 fills the second electric conducting material in described contact hole 310, is preferably contacting metal, forms contact plug 320.Described contacting metal can be the metal or alloy such as W, TiAl, Al.Alternatively, fill contacting metal in described contact hole 310 before, can pass through the depositing operations such as ALD, CVD, PVD first at the whole inwall of contact hole 310 and bottom deposition one deck lining (not shown), the material of described lining can be Ti, TiN, Ta, TaN or its combination, the scope of its thickness is 5nm-20nm, as 10nm or 15nm.Fill after contacting metal, described contacting metal is carried out to cmp planarization processing, make the upper surface flush of upper surface and the interlayer dielectric layer 300 of contacting metal.
According to the step of conventional semiconductor fabrication process, complete subsequently the manufacture of this semiconductor structure.
After above-mentioned steps completes, in described semiconductor structure, form double layer of metal silicide, be respectively the first metal silicide layer 111 between interlayer dielectric layer 300 and source/drain region 110, and the second metal silicide layer 112 between contact plug 320 and source/drain region 110.Compared with prior art, owing to having increased contact layer (as the first metal silicide layer 111), thereby further reduced the contact resistance between source/drain region and metal silicide layer; In addition, described the first metal silicide layer 111 that the first metal layer 250 by deposition of thin forms, in up to 850 ℃, still there is thermal stability, thereby avoided after forming described the first metal silicide layer 111, when the first grid dielectric layer 210 consisting of high K dielectric or gate dielectric layer 270 are annealed, the increase of described the first metal silicide layer 111 resistivity that cause due to high temperature.Because the combination of the first metal silicide layer 111 and the second metal silicide layer 112 has expanded the contact area of contact plug and source-drain area, so method for making semiconductor provided by the invention, can effectively reduce the contact resistance between source/drain region and contact plug, be beneficial to the performance that improves semiconductor structure.In addition, the formation of the first metal silicide layer 111, can also reduce tubulose defect, effectively reduces semiconductor structure short circuit.
